Re: TV Security! What's NEXT?

said by dave See Profile :

I don't suppose this is a patent issued to a good guy who will never ever implement it and who will never ever issue licences to others... ?

No? Oh.
You may think I am joking about this but what if this took off?

You enter a store, pick a TV out, look at the price, you see another TV same make same model Hundreds of dollars cheaper, you scratch your head, ask the store clerk..

"What's up with this? The same TV here is hundreds of dollars cheaper and the same make and model next to it costs this!"

The Clerk responds....

"Oh, sir the CHEAPER one is subsidized by advertisers, and restricts you to change channels during a commercial, that's why the price is so different"

Suddenly this starts spreading to MP3 Players, Cell Phone service plans, radios, and so on.

Personally, I don't think devices should have ADMIN privileges without providing passwords for their Logon ID
